(LEBANON, Missouri) – With the season slowly winding down and the points battle tightening up, Hardee’s Sportsman drivers venture to Lebanon I-44 Speedway for a double dose of feature action with Saturday night’s ‘Lucky 21’ twin headliners. The division’s two 21-lap feature events will headline this weekend’s 12th ‘Kickin’ Asphalt’ program of the 2012 campaign while a full slate of ASA racing action, including the annual ‘Hoosier Tire Road Warrior Brawl,’ awaits fans while a Budweiser Pre-Race Party ensures that fans will remain entertained before a single lap is ticked off on Missouri’s only asphalt oval.

“We are excited that we were able to put together a pair of extended Hardee’s Sportsman features this weekend,” said Lebanon I-44 Speedway Promoter Kevin Greven. “This class has consistently been one of the most competitive all season long and fans will be treated to a double dose of action on Saturday night. In addition, the Hoosier Tire Road Warriors will be in attendance for a special show as well as the rest of our weekly divisions. Combined with the Budweiser Pre-Race Party, our racing program helps form the best value and most excitement to fans in Mid-Missouri.”

While two divisions that are normally overlooked will be stealing the headlines this Saturday night, fans can still look forward to an action-packed undercard that includes the O’Reilly Auto Parts ASA Late Models as well as the Budweiser Modifieds and Coca-Cola Chargers. Spectator gates open up at 5:00 p.m., with a full slate of ASA stock car racing scheduled to get underway at 7:30 p.m. on the 3/8th-mile oval.

Lebanon I-44 Speedway offers an alcohol-free grandstand, featuring aluminum seating with seat-backs, along with tier parking for cars, pickup trucks and RV’s where patrons may park, tailgate and view the races. Known amongst I-44 race fans as the ‘Budweiser Wild Side’, beer may be brought in by fans to the tier parking areas, while full food and non-alcoholic beverage concessions are available in both the grandstands and tier parking, along with a souvenir and track apparel stand.

Admission prices will remain just $10 for Adults, ages 16 and older, in the grandstands while Adult admission on the ‘Budweiser Wild Side’ will remain just $15. Discounted admission will be offered in both locations for Military members with an ID present, as well as Seniors (ages 65 and older) and Juniors (ages 11-15), and Children (ages 10 and younger) will be admitted for free. A grandstand Family Pass for two Adults and two Juniors plus any number of Children is available for $25, while six Adults entering in the same vehicle on tiered parking will be admitted to the ‘Budweiser Wild Side’ for $75.

“Fans will be getting more action for the same weekly price on Saturday night,” said Greven. “That’s the beauty of I-44 – we keep the ticket prices low and try to bring in special events or give fans a little something extra. This weekend we have a bit of both and we are excited to put on the best racing program in Missouri at a value unrivaled anywhere.”
